I know y'all put a lot of work into making this convention a success. I just want y'all to know that we really appreciate all the effort you put into making this convention such a smooth running event. I'm sure you don't receive enough kudos for the work you do, so I want to make sure that you have ours.

Myself, Joe Goodman and the fella with the maple syrup products had the best sales of any NTA event at this one. I've heard good things from other vendors as well.

Thanks to you all - Paul

Here, here Paul! Ohio ran this one top-notch.
It was a great show for Donna and I also.
One of the best in quite some time.

The volunteers like Bob who kept an eye on our building are invaluable!
Thank you all.

Blessings,
Mark

The Ohio Trappers did a fantastic job in getting everything organized and keeping things running so smoothly.

This was a great convention to say the least. My wife and I sure had a great time and we appreciate all of the OTA's hard work.

Yes thanks to all the volunteers who helped and all that attended. Sure wished I could have mingled a bit more but I was put in charge of the demo building/ area so I pretty much hung around there. We just got home and arr unpacking. That was a long week. We sat up last sat to start getting the demo are built. Huge chore!
Anyone in charge of building one I say good luck. If not for a dedicated team of volunteers I don't think we could have done it.
We met a ton of folks. Great times!

It was really a great show. I didn't get to spend as much time there as would have liked too, but saw most of it if only from a distance. My friend that came with me, (a non-trapper) was very impressed with entire venue and amazed at the demo area.

Does anyone have a head count of attendees, for the 3 days?

Thank you to everyone that made it such a success.

Candi and I enjoyed the entire event. ACK and others did great demos. I always learn so much. The demo area was again spectacular. The muskrat hut looked very real and it was filled with hot locations! We had great help from the volunteers. The 3 days go so fast. You just can't beat seeing old friends and making new ones. Thanks to all. Paul, the Skeeter Pee again was a big ticket item at the auction. Good of you to keep that tradition going.

The OSTA group are some of the best I have ever worked with. I think it was a good event, and proud of my small role in helping. Those folks can do it with their eyes closed. See everyone next year!

There was a much larger turnout than I expected, for sure. It was nice to catch up with you Paul. It's been a few years! And Lori loved the wine.

Bryan Nelson had a big job on his shoulders and apparently everyone worked well together to make a good experience.
